REFERENCE  NOTES 


1.  One  of  the  owners  and  developers  of  the  mine  was 
J.  J.  Prendergast  of  Redlands. 

2.  There  is  some  information  on  the  great  Quartette  mine 
of  Searchlight,  along  whose  vein  the  Cyrus  Noble  was 
located.   The  Quartette  once  had  a  small  railroad 

from  the  mine  down  to  the  Colorado  River  at  Searchlight 
(now  Cottonwood)  Landing.   The  mill  was  first  located 
beside  the  river,  and  was  served  by  the  steamboats. 

3.  The  map  shows  the  exact  location  of  several  other  mines 
and  mills  in  the  area,  such  as  the  Duplex,  which  is 
still  operating  to  some  extent. 

h.    The  booklet  was  printed  by  the  Out  West  Printing  Co. 
(Publisher  of  OUT  WEST  magazine?   Lummis?)

THE  property  of  the  Cyrus  Noble  Mining-  Company  is  located  in  Section 
54,  Townsliip  29  South.  Range.  63  East.  M.  D.  M..  and  consists  of 
ten  claims  and  fractions,  approximately  162  acres,  of  which  five  are  patent- 
ed, i.  e.,  "  CYRUS  NOBLE."  "CYRUS  JR.."  "BROWN  JUG,"  "DIAMOND 
WEDGE."  and  "HORSESHOE."  Surveyed  for  patent  are  "KING 
EDWARD."  "DRAGON."  "HERBERT."  "FOUR  ACES"  and  "GOLQEN 
CUP."  It  is  bounded  on  the  north  by  the  Searchlight  Parallel  and  Goodenough, 
and  on  the  west  by  the  famous  Quartette  and  Duplex  Mining  Companies.  .,  „ 

THESE  claims  may  truly  be  said  to  be  the  hub  of  the  main  ledges  of 
the  Quartette  and  Duplex  mines.  There  is  some  dispute  among  mining 
men  as  to  the  general  trend  of  the  Cyrus  Noble  vein,  but  there  is  no  difference 
of  opinion  among  leading  mining  engineers  as  to  the  Cyrus  Noble  being  the 
Quartette  ledge,  which  has  produced  $1 ,500,000,00,  and  has  89,000,000 
worth  of  ore  blocked  out,  *

T^XPLOlTJtTION  IS  going  on  at  the  greatest  speed  possible.  There 
■»-^  are  now  SO  men  working  around  the  mine,  and  the  main  shaft,  which 
is  being  enlarged  to  ?  x  9  feet,  is  down  500  feet.  Sinking  with  three  shifts 
will  not  cease  until  the  1000-foot  depth  is  reached.  Stations  will  be  cut 
every  100  feet  and  drifts  will  be  run  both  ways.  This  will  add  materially 
to  the  2,000  feet  of  workings  already  performed  in  cross-cuts,  drifts  and  up- 
raises, thus  blocking  out  additionally  huge  bodies  of  excellent  ore. 

"This  ledge,  which  is  50  per  cent  better  than  the  Quartette  was  at  the 
same  depth  "  (according  to  Capt.  Luxon's  statement),  should  with  greater 
depth  far  surpass  this  wonderful  bonanza.

Values 


T  1  NMISTAKABLY  there  can  also  ho  traced  in   the  Cyrus  Noble  (jround 
\^     the   main  vtin  of  the    Duplex  Mininp  Company,  which  has  produced 
:f300.000.  and   lias  been  acquired    recently  by  'Jnhn  BrockniAn,    the   mil- 
lionaire   mine-owner.       It  likewise  contains   the    Goodenough    Vein,  which 
shows  free-(Told  ore  at  the  surface. 

/T  IS  ESTIMATED  on  a  connorvative  basis,  that  from  the  main  shaft 
Ihroiurh  which  the  Company  is  to  this  day  conducting  all  its  devebp- 
opment  work,  over  -60.000  00  has  been  taken  out.  and  S500.000.00 
worth  of  ore  has  been  blocked  out.  Returns  of  shipments  to  Sebby's  smelter 
will  sliow  a  net  return  <:)i  S103.?2  per  ton.  some  high  (jrade  streaks  running 
as  high  as  S  1  0.000.00  per  ton.  But  a  conservative  average  of  the  entire 
ledge,  which  is  from  4  to  32  feet  in  width,  is  SSS'OO  per  ton.    The  ledge 


Surface 
improve- 
ments 


emphatically  increases  in  size  and  value  as  depth  is  reached,  and  is  free- 
milling.  While  we  do  not  promise  to  find  S20.00  gold  pieces  with  depth,  we 
do  state  that  an  excellent  profit  can  be  made,  with  an  unlimited  amount  of 
good  ore.  whose  cost  of  mining  and  milling  is  only  S4.00  per  ton. 

/I  NEW  ten-stamp  mill  has  just  been  completed  at  the  cost  of  $15,000 
C/~l  being  of  the  most  modern  type,  and  having-' everything  necessary  for 
the  complete  extraction  of  gold.  Among  the  other  buildings  that  give  the 
ground  an  appearance  of  good  substantial  mining  operation  are  the  Manager's 
home,  the  Superintendent's  home,  the  assay  office,  a  well-equipped  black- 
smith shop,  hoist  house,  store  rooms  and  other  such  buildings  as  are  essential 
for  good  successful  mine  operation. 


Capable 
manage- 
ment 


THE  directorate  assures  its  stockholders  of  proper  administration  of  the 
company's  funds  and  affairs. 
TKe  Money  Must  and  "Will  go  into  Extensive  Development 

By  this  means  the  small  stockholder  can  share  in  the  dividends  as  well  as 
the  capitalist. 

Capt.  Luxon.  who  for  three  years  served  in  the  capacity  of  Mine  Su- 
perintendent in  the  Quartette  mine,  is  now  in  charge  of  the  "  Cyrus 
Noble,"  Chas.  M.  Egge.  recent  foreman  of  the  Montgomery  Shoshone 
mine,  is  acting  in  the  same  capacity  in  the  "Cyrus  Noble."  John  Bow- 
den,  the  mill  man.  has  been  employed  for  14  years  in  the  famous  Utica  mine 
in  California. 

With  such  management  as  this,  we  see  nothing  but  successful  mining 
operation. 


Valuation 


THE  Cyrus  Noble  owns  162  acres,  most  of  which  are  adjacent  to  the 
Quartette,  with  the  Quartette  ledge  to  work  on.  and  the  price  that 
this  famous  property  is  selling  at  to-day.  the  Cyrus  Noble  should  rise  above 
par,  i.  e.,  $1  00.  in  the  very  near  future.  The  Quartette  property  carries  a 
valuation  of  SI 5.000.000.  the  stock  soiling  strong  at  S15  per  share: 
and  there  is  no  question  but  that  it  is  worth  intrinsically  much  more  than  that 
figure.  Therefore,  with  these  Focts  in  view,  also  that  the  Cyrus  Noble  has 
produced  $60,000,  and  has  $500,000  worth  of  ore  blocked  out.  this  property 
will  bear  watching.  If  you  have  already  done  so.  you  will  find  every  state- 
inent  made  by  us  correct,  for  we  have  not  taken  into  consideration  the  in- 
creased facilities  for  transportation  by  railroad  in  the  very  near  future,  this 
being  another  assured  Fact.

OUR    PREDICTION 

rmS  property  was  thoroughly  examined  by  our  own  engineer  before 
being  put  on  the  market.  Upon  his  enthusiastic  jeport  we  secured  a 
limited  numberof  shares  of  treasury  stock  (100,000),  the  proceeds  of 
these  to  be  put  into  the  ground.  We  are  sufficiently  impressed  with 'the  pos- 
sibilities of  this  property  to  invest  our  o'wn  money  in  it,  and  have 
secured  the  only  treasury  stock  on  the  market.  We  can  conscientiously  rec- 
ommend this  as  an  exceptional  investment,  either  to  hold  permanently  or  for 
a  rapid  advance  in  price.  We  want  to  make  money  for  you,  and  give  you  the 
benefit  of  our  judgment,  as  that  is  the  only  way  to  hold  you  as  one  of  our 
I    financial  clients  ;  for  we  want  your   patronage,  not  only  to-day,  but  to-mor- 


Di  viil*-nd 


row  next  year,  and  continue  so  long  as  we  '  make  good."  We  are  not 
selling  you  a  prospectus,  as  is  very  often  the  case,  but  say  to  you.  Investi- 
gate it  tKoroughly,  for  we  are  confident  that  you  will  then  join  us. 

"W  e  h  n  o  -w  what  this  stock  is  going  to  do.  and  know  emphatically 
when  -we  predict  a  dividend  not  later  than  July.  1906,  or  possibly 
earlier. 

Therefore,  wire  us  for  a  block  of  this  slock,  and  it  will  make  you  our 
client  and  friend.
